Yeah. Some cool stuff, Demiscy. Later this year, I should have some limited cool stuff like yours. I managed to find a excellent condition of "The Lion King" Platinum Edition Region 1. Have put it on hold at this import store. Will be mine soon. I will be getting that Friends set soon, as well, when I have enough money.

You see, that's the problem. I have a couple of region 4 and 5 discs as well as a lot of asian region 3 tites. So that won't do i'm afraid.

If I remember things correctly DVDprofiler enables you to add titles yourself. At least it used to, can't seem to find that feature now. On the other hand i'm just playing around with the free verison. Maybe that's something that's only availible in the premium version?

DVD aficionado does that, adds titles from different regions. Not all though. Just the most common/ popular ones - R1, R2(UK), R4(AUS). There may be some from Asia. Not sure though, as I don't have one from Asia.

I tend to do, yes. Recently, it's been like this in cases of double dip: First I get the R1 DVD cause' it's the first one released and I want it as fast as possible. However, in some cases I also get the R2 DVD of films I love when the R2 release turns out to be the better one. I did this with X-Men: The Last Stand. I got the comic and the cool packaging with the R1 DVD but I got the content and the DTS-ES with the 2-disc R2. I guess my answer is that I do double dip, but not with every single DVD. In rare cases only.

Lastly, I spotted TCM 2 (you sure have it early!), is the disc inside dual-sided? Thanks...

Halloween H20: Because the R1 DVD displays the picture in a letterbox format wider than the OAR of 2.35:1, something that results in larger black bars than there should be. That annoys me. I bought the other one cause I thought it might be in the OAR. It wasn't.

Phantasm: Yes I'm afraid it is the bootleg box set. I want to point out though that I would never have bought it if I had known that before. On the other hand; I do have the official release as well. It includes workprints of both Phantasm II & III but the picture quality is far from watchable. There's an hour or so of unedited behind the scenes material from the making of Phantasm II (i think) as well. This is worth the price alone although it's in the same bad picture quality as the workprints.
